    Amazing playoffs for the Bruins! I am very happy for the city of Boston!! I will be there tomorrow for the parade and can't wait to see the cup!! Very exciting time in Boston over the past 10 years, I am so lucky to have been living there for some of this amazing decade!

    celtic croatia, is hockey popular in croatia?

    One of the game's best player and my all time fav player Joe Sakic had croatian parents if I'm not mistaken. :50:

    Immortal - I know this is biased but Bobby Orr and Cam Neely are my two fav all time players. Who is everyones fav player? Of course I have to give a shout out to the Great one but since he played for LA and New York. He has never made my top players.

    I'm expecting a massive turnout. Pretty much everyone I know is going, everyone in my neighborhood also.

    It'll be crazy, no doubt. My boss is going down with his family and I might meet up with him but I doubt I'll be able to find him in the crowd.

    Peter Forsberg (the best two-way player of the last 20 years, imo), Joe Sakic, Patrick Roy. I never saw much of him due to what happened to him, but I loved the rare opportunities to watch Mario Lemieux.

    Favourite current players are probably Ryan Miller, Jonathan Toews, Matt Duchene and Sid the Kid.

    Congratulations to Boston. They more then deserved the victory and winning the Stanley Cup. In fact if it wasn't for a slow start to the series in front of the net Vancouver would have been done a while ago. I thought also the Vancouver fans behaviour after the final whistle never mind out in the streets was disgusting. No class at all. Basically acting like huns. But hey they wear blue tops and live in Bristish Columbia so maybe not such a big surprise:icon_mrgreen:

    Always like Jagr and the prospect of him coming back to the NHL at 39 is great. Was a fan of Lindros and Roy as well.

    If Jagr returned, it would be superb. Yeah, Lindros was a phenomenon before those concussions. Shame really. Think a lot of people said it was karma after the way he treated the Nordiques...?

    What??? They traded Richards??? Crazy. The one guy you'd think would stay there... Is this so they can bring in Bryzgalov? Will LA offload a want-away Ryan Smyth then? Trade a center for a left-winger perhaps? * *. Big shake-up by the Flyers.
